Considering the history of many of the people involved, people getting angry seems pretty likely. There was actually some controversy and calls for cutting material from the issue before it even appeared. It likely will shake things up, at least for a bit.

I agree. It’s one of those ironies that a group that starts as independent and establishment-challenging will, over time, become its own interdependent establishment. That’s happened with the Church of the SubGenius and, in a more spread out way as it doesn’t have an actual hierarchy, the Discordians.

It happens even in political history. The American Republican Party was once the young upstart, establishment-challenging, civil rights party. It’s hard to imagine now.

The confusion over Gypsie Skripto is easy to understand. Greg was inspired to imagine what that very real little girl he knew and held on his lap so many years ago would be like when she grew up. That became the fictional Gypsie. I’m afraid the fictional version is more exciting than the real one.
